Large scale structure surveys will likely become the next leading cosmological probe. In our universe, matter perturbations are large on short distances and small at long scales, i.e. strongly coupled in the UV and weakly coupled in the IR.…
We analyze scale dependence of redshift space bias $b$ and $\beta \equiv \Omega_m^{0.6}/b$ in the context of the halo model. We show that linear bias is a good approximation only on large scales, for $k<0.1h$Mpc$^{-1}$. On intermediate…
